Probably because of the reputation of BMW drivers in the US. And the reputation for cost and frequency of maintenance and repairs in the US. A lot of people have a thing against beamers.

I write from the European perspective, where E46 is not a luxury but one of cheapest choices. Maybe you are right about the US reputation

Most people don't hate BMW's or their drivers, it's a joke that they're all stuck up a-holes. There's similar jokes for people driving Tesla's being oblivious (fascists too now lol), Nissan Altima drivers being incredibly reckless, Prius' for always going 15 under the limit in the passing lane, etc.

I saw an e46 323 for $2000 yesterday, it's also a cheap option here.

Well, that's good.

Something like in Europe. I would put LPG for this engine to make it more green but still having fun :)
